I serve 4 ounces.
A cup and an ounce measure different things. A cup is a measure of volume, while an ounce is a measure of weight. Generally speaking, dry spaghetti (or most any dry pasta) will double in size when you cook it. I'd estimate that if you cook 2 ounces of dry spaghetti, you will get roughly one cup cooked spaghetti.
A pasta server looks like a serving spoon with a deep bowl and blunt "teeth" around the edges. As you scoop the pasta, the teeth will grab onto the pasta and hold it on the spoon so you can successfully serve it with one hand.
Most "official" U.S. sources will tell you that a serving size of pasta for a single adult is 1/2 cup (4 oz.) So, your 1.5 pounds would serve 6 people, according to those sources (USDA, American Diabetes Association, etc.) The true answer to your question is that it will depend upon the appetites of those you are feeding and the amount of other dishes you serve along with the pasta.
No, Olive Garden does not serve Japanese food. It is an Italian-American eatery that serves Italian-American dishes, such as spaghetti, pasta, and steak.
You can precook the spaghetti and store it in coils in the refrigerator. Precook the sauce and store. When you want to serve take the spaghetti out and pour hot water over the precooked pasta. Heat the sauce in the microwave. You can also mix the two together, put it in a pan, sprinkle cheese on top and bake. Served as baked spaghetti. This is what I do with my leftover spaghetti and it is quite good.
Using the serving size on the nutritional facts as a guide, a serving is 2 ounces. 2 ounces x 1000 = 2000 ounces 2000 / 16 onnces = 125 pounds Note this was suggested serving size, I would suggest having at least 50% extra. Any remaining could be donated to a local food pantry.
To cook spaghetti, bring a saucepan of salt water to the boil. Place the spaghetti in the saucepan and cover with a tight fitting lid. Cook for about 15-20 minutes. Drain the pasta and serve with your favorite sauce.
no, but in the Philippines there is spaghetti in McDonald
It depends if you only serve pasta salad or something else with it. When you serve only the pasta salad - I would use 6 packages ( 6 pounds ) of pasta, 6 tin peas, 24 tomatoes, 8 onions, 2 pounds ham, 6 tin corn, 3 red pepper. If you want to serve this to a bbq - I would recommend a quarter of the recipe above.
